Xtranormal really is shutting down

They
talk about an "act 2," as if Xtranormal will return again in some form,
some day. Here's hoping... but frankly, I doubt it.

So, at
least we have a little more time than I thought. Xtranormal is so buggy
right now that I don't know if it's even worth attempting some of the
big stuff I always planned to do leading up to my final episode. These
days it's complicated just to do the simple stuff, and if I email
Xtranormal for tech support I doubt they'll even get back to me. (And can
you blame them? Anybody who is still working there now is probably busy updating their
resume.)

I have no idea. I suspect my output will slow down quite a bit. As cumbersome as making Xtranormal cartoons became, it was still so, so much better and faster than most of the other animation programs out there. I won't have the option to just have an idea and then bang out a cartoon a few hours later... So, maybe that'll mean fewer, better cartoons, or maybe that will just mean fewer cartoons.

Who is Ursula Hitler?

Ursula is a writer, artist and transvestite adventurer based in Los Angeles.

What is Inside Ursula Hitler's Head?

Through the miracle of cheap-ass xtranormal.com animation, we can visit Sweetie and Mr. Meany, the Party Girl and the Mean Old Man who live inside of Ursula Hitler's head. It's an ongoing series, so you should probably start with the beginning. (Scroll to the bottom of the page and work your way up.)
